AMSOIL MT82 Transmission fluid...

Whats the deal?

I was trying to change the fluid on my MT82 but their site nor their cs rep was able to suggest a replacement.:lol1:

What did you all go with? I just became a "preferred customer" and would like to stick with amsoil.


Manual Transmission & Transaxle Gear Lube 75W-90
AMSOIL Manual Transmission & Transaxle Gear Lube 75W-90

or


Manual Synchromesh Transmission Fluid 5W-30

Nobody can recommend a fluid anymore since ford switched to the thinner fluid. Neither Amsoil or Redline carry a product as thin as the stock fluid. When the mt82 use to have the thicker fluid, Redline recommended their MTL fluid.

I run Amsoil MTG. I use this fluid because of the extreme hot summers here. If it gets below 40 it's hard to shift for the first few miles. I use to use Redline MTL. MTL was silky smooth.

This! I use the Amsoil MTG as well for the exact same reason.

Ran Amsoil MTF near the end of summer here in San Diego. Was way to thin in 90+ degree temps and me romping on it. Perfect for San Diego winter though. Will be switching to Amsoil MTG when it starts to warm up.

I switched to thier MTF which is a 5w30. Feels way better than stock fluid. Combined with the MGW shifter = as sexy as this china tranny can get.

Redline mtl has helped my shifts in cold weather. Save your stock fluid in a milk jug in case you need warranty work.

I use MTG and like it. Live in Vegas with hot summers.

I am going with amsoil MTG / Dot4 brake fluid and the JHR clutchline for the justincase.
Thanks for the replies.:beer:
